welp...an update
Posted By: Zachary Robinson on August 17, 2005

Looks like that I won't be making the trip this weekend. *cries*

I hold these dayum outrageous gas prices accountable. The prices in NJ are something else from ranges of 2.49 to some areas which have 2.65. Chances are the price will hit the 3 dollar make before the summer is out. And yesterday I have to pay $37 for a full tank of gas and I drive a Blazer.

Looks like I'll be back on my skateboard. *sighs*

Is anyone else is feeling the pain @the gas pump? I know I'm not the only one in here.

Yea man....so much pain that it almost brings a tear to my eye. I drive an 89 Camry. Once upon a time I could fill up the tank for about 10-11 bucks if it was completely empty. It cost me 22+ the last time I filled up and that's when gas was down around $2. It's crazy. Me and the bus may have to get re-acquainted...

I live in Massachusetts, I drive a minivan, laugh if you want, I have two boys whom play football, I need the room. The last time I filled up $43 dollars last fall it was about $32. We didn't do summer vacation because of gas prices. During the winter, I am reacquainting myself with the bus. The stop is at the top of my street and at the corner for my office buidling. Buying a good pair of winter boots is cheaper than gas! Looking forward to 2008.
